Answer:
Current price is equal to $16.575
Explanation:
It is given common dividend [tex]D_0=1.30[/tex]
Growth rate = 2% = 0.02
Required rate of return = 10% = 0.1
Dividend paid in next year
[tex]D_1=D_0(1+g)=1.30\times 1.02=1.326[/tex]
Current price is given by [tex]P_0=\frac{D_1}{R_e-g}[/tex]
[tex]P_0=\frac{1.326}{0.1-0.02}=16.575[/tex]
Therefore current price is equal to $16.575
